Greetings from Canada :) Some of you may know that the R34 GTR just became legal in our country. We have a law stating that vehicles not manufactured for the North American market must be 15 years old or older to be eligible for import. My last Skyline was a 1992 R32 GTST I bought back in 2007. Very happy to have one of the first (legally imported) R34 GTR's in the country :)

Needs a wash and the front diffuser needs a bit of work, but I love it immensely.

Have you got plans for your GT-R? Are you navigating through SAU quite easily? Searching through our For Sale threads?

I am navigating very well thanks :) I've actually been a member here since I had my R32 in 2007... I just never, ever post. I am a bit more active on the GTRCanada but not by much.

Most of the year in northern BC by the Alberta border. GTR is currently garaged in Vancouver since all the gravel on the roads from winter would not play nice with the windscreen and paint. It will come up here with me in June or so during our summer... before I likely move back in December-ish.

I am probably begin with some cosmetic mods, interior bits, wheels, and repairing the front diffuser. The bonnet dampers I ordered from Japan just arrived at my place in Vancouver today, along with the parts to swap out the factory navigation so I can fit a proper stereo that works in Canada. The car came with most of the significant stuff done to it. TRUST exhaust, Tein coilovers, HKS boost controller, etc... Not super keen on opening up the engine yet having only had it for just over a month now.

There are actually a number of photos of your car saved on my drive in my "inspiration" folder... though I didn't know it was yours at the time!

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
